I was so very excited to try out these yummy crepes preeti suggested for this months fusion dessert “Sweet fantasy club” . I wanted to try out crepes for long time for now but some how missed to try out thanks to preeti of “ Simply tadka” for suggesting this yummy chocolate crepes with strawberries . I followed the recipe suggested by preeti as is and the outcome was fantastic 🙂 Thanks preeti for sharing this yummy recipe. Chocolate and strawberries as you all know go very well and are like made for each other . I love the combo and didn’t even hesitated to make them as quick as possible.
Crepes are the very famous french pancakes which are thinner and generally made with wheat flour or all purpose flour . They are served with variety of filling it can be a simple whipped cream and fruits which would make them a filling dessert to snack on. Chocolate flavored crepes are classic french pancakes which can be also made into a rich dessert by adding some cream and strawberries with some chocolate drizzled. Considering the richness I have omitted the cream and we enjoyed this crepe as a evening snack :). My daughter loved them a lot as she is one chocoholic and a great lover of strawberries so this was like one delicious snack for her. Over to the egg free chocolate crepe for chocolate lover’s 🙂 For this week Bm theme after school tiffin / snack this would be the perfect treat any kid can enjoy .Check out the Blogging Marathon page for the other Blogging Marathoners doing BM#37.

- When both the sides are cooked ( see to that they don’t burn) transfer the crepe to a plate and continue the same with rest of the batter.

Tips
